[Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, Zip] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, Zip] Subject: Notice of Premises Leakage during Rain and Demand for Repair Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health and high spirits. I am writing to bring to your immediate attention a pressing issue regarding the rented premises at [Rental Property Address], specifically the significant leaks that occur during rainy weather. Unfortunately, the situation has reached a point where urgent action is required to avoid further damage and inconvenience. During the past few rainfalls, it has become evident that the property's roof or windows are not adequately sealed and water is seeping through, resulting in water damage to the ceilings, walls, and even the flooring. The leaks are causing not only physical damage to the property but are also posing potential health hazards due to the presence of moisture and mold growth. These leaks have led to an extremely unpleasant living experience, as my belongings have been damaged, creating discomfort and potential health risks. In addition, the recurring leaks have affected my ability to fully utilize certain rooms as they are now unusable during rainy conditions. As a responsible tenant, I have taken immediate measures to mitigate the damage caused by the leaks, such as placing buckets and towels to collect the water and prevent further harm. However, these temporary solutions are inadequate and do not address the root cause of the problem. Therefore, in accordance with my rights as a tenant, I kindly request that the necessary repairs be carried out urgently to rectify the issues causing the premises' leakage. I kindly urge you to arrange for a qualified and experienced professional to inspect the property thoroughly, identify the source of leakage, and proceed with the necessary repairs in a timely manner. As stipulated in the lease agreement, it is the landlord's responsibility to provide and maintain a safe and habitable living environment. I trust that you acknowledge the seriousness of this matter and understand the importance of addressing it promptly. In light of the situation described, please confirm in writing within [reasonable time-frame, e.g., 5 business days] upon receipt of this notice that appropriate repair measures will be taken to rectify the leaks. Furthermore, I kindly ask for a written schedule outlining the steps and timeline for the repairs, indicating when I can expect the situation to be resolved. Please be aware that failure to take prompt action to remedy the leakage issue within a reasonable time-frame may result in further damage to the property, which could potentially affect its market value, as well as legal actions on my part to ensure my rights as a tenant are upheld. I look forward to your prompt attention to this matter and a resolution that will ensure the property's habitability is restored swiftly. If you require any further information or need to arrange an inspection of the premises, please do not hesitate to contact me at the provided contact details. Thank you for your immediate attention and cooperation.
